Episode Synopsis

In this episode, Hashi Mohamed joins Naomi to discuss his journey from arriving in the UK as a child refugee to becoming a barrister and author. 
Hashi Mohamed arrived in the UK as an unaccompanied child refugee. With the support of a number of people, including a teacher who gave up her summer to provide a safe space for her students, Hashi was able to work towards his dreams in terms of his education and career. Following a Master's degree at St Anthony's College, Oxford, Hashi went on to pursue a career as a barrister. His book, People Like Us, reflects on his personal journey in relation to the wider theme of social mobility in the UK. 
Hashi and Naomi discuss the importance of recognising those who support us in achieving our success, how to think about 'fitting in', and the work he has done with Big Education, a charitable trust that runs schools.
